====Ingredients====
  *GF all-purpose flour: 215 g
  *Cornstarch: 20 g
  *Baking soda: 1 tsp
  *Baking powder: 3/4 tsp
  *Pumpkin pie spice: 2.5 tsp
  *Cinnamon: 1/2 tbsp
  *Kosher salt: 3 g (3/4 tsp)

  *Eggs: 3 large, room temperature
  *Light brown sugar: 175 g
  *Sugar: 100 g
  *Vanilla extract: 1 tsp

  *Vegetable oil: 130 g
  *Pumpkin puree: 330 g
 
====Notes====
  *I added pecans to the top and it worked out nicely
  *I used the America's Test Kitchen 'How Can It Be Gluten Free' All-Purpose blend for the flour and it came out great, but I think this recipe is forgiving enough to handle most GF flours

====Instructions====
  -Preheat oven to 350F
  -Line loaf pan (preferably 8.5" x 4.5" x 4" or so) with parchment paper and spray liberally with oil spray or coat well with oil
  -In a medium-sized bowl sift together the gluten-free flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and spices
  -In a separate large mixing bowl combine the room temperature large eggs, light brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract and whisk together
  -Add the oil and pumpkin puree and whisk until smooth and mix until smooth
  -Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir well to combine. Allow to sit for 20-30 minutes for the flour to fully hydrate
  -Transfer the pumpkin bread batter to the prepared loaf pan. Use a spatula, spoon, or small offset to smooth it out evenly
  -Bake for 55-65 minutes. The loaf is done when it is golden brown and a toothpick or cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean
  -Allow for it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then remove it from the loaf pan, transfer it to a cooling rack and allow it to cool completely
